Micro remediation of contaminated soils

罗纳德·A·奇泽姆有限公司已经向SAIT寻求技术援助，以对美国Drylet，LLC拥有的一种生物修复产品进行验证测试。该产品名为Drylet MB Bioremediation，是一种高度浓缩的自然发生的非转基因微生物粉末，其中含有能够在几天内消耗石油、天然气、柴油和石油副产品中的有害元素的活的本土微生物。虽然R.A.Chisholm拥有在加拿大销售它的分销权，但Drylet MB生物修复在加拿大应用之前，必须证明它适合加拿大土壤并在其中有效发挥作用。该产品必须符合艾伯塔省能源监管机构(AER)设定的“艾伯塔省一级标准”，这是加拿大对石油污染补救最严格的标准之一。在拟议的项目中，SAIT将进行测试，以评估Drylet MB生物修复在降解加拿大土壤中的原油污染方面的效果。项目结果将由R.A.Chisholm用于获得AER对专有产品的批准。这将是该公司朝着在加拿大营销和销售该产品的目标迈出的重要一步。Drylet MB生物修复是一种针对原油污染的有效、快速和无毒的处理产品，将对环境的影响降至最低，并有助于降低加拿大石油修复的相关运营成本。

Ronald A. Chisholm Ltd. has approached SAIT for technical assistance to conduct verification testing of a bioremediation product owned by the US-based Drylet, LLC. The product, called DryLet MB Bioremediation, is a highly concentrated, naturally occurring, non-genetically modified microorganism powder that contains live indigenous microorganisms able to consume hazardous elements of oil, gas, diesel, and petroleum by-products within days. While R. A. Chisholm has the distribution rights to sell it in Canada, DryLet MB Bioremediation must be proven to be suitable for and working effectively in Canadian soils before its applications in the country. The product has to meet "Alberta Tier 1" set by the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER), one of the most stringent criteria in Canada for oil contamination remediation. In the proposed project, SAIT will carry out testing to evaluate the efficacy of DryLet MB Bioremediation in degrading crude oil contamination in Canadian soils. The project results will be used by R. A. Chisholm to acquire an approval for the proprietary product from the AER. It will be an important step for the company towards its goal to market and sell the product in Canada. DryLet MB Bioremediation is an effective, fast and non-toxic treatment product for crude oil contamination, and will minimize the impacts to the environment and help reduce the associated operating costs in oil remediation in Canada.
